Ratings and reviews

This could be a very good app, but it has a horrible UX and it's full of bugs. The back button is not working as back, the schedule setting is horribly slow, keyboard disappearing when it should appear, cannot set a few schedules without crashing, then the entered stuff are lost and you can start again the slow and cumbersome entering process.

The app is very slow and now they started to lock many features behind a subscription paywall. I don't think it's right to remove features and put them behind a paywall. Some of these features might have been the reason to purchase the product...

Used to be great, however MyStrom recently downgraded their products by putting previously included and advertised features behind a subscription model / paywall. Going forward I would have to pay to see more than one week worth of statistics from my smart plugs, essentially a feature the smartplugs were advertised with when I bought them originally. Guess I will need to find some other solution, as I can't agree to a company changing ToS after the purchase and changing to a subscription model.
